A Natural Restoration

Restylane Lyft adds volume to the face and reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. This type of dermal filler is made from hyaluronic acid, a substance naturally found in the body and used to hydrate and plump the skin, giving it a more youthful appearance. This gel fills in wrinkles and fine lines and adds volume to areas that have lost fullness over time. Restylane injections in Denver are relatively quick and can be completed in a single office visit.

Restylane Lyft is commonly used to treat the following areas of the face:

Cheeks
Nasolabial folds (smile lines)
Marionette lines (lines that run from the corners of the mouth to the chin)

Is Restylane Lyft Right for Me?

Restylane Lyft is typically recommended for individuals 21 years or older and is most effective for people experiencing signs of aging, such as wrinkles, fine lines, and sagging skin. Because it involves injecting a filler substance into the skin, it's essential to avoid any underlying health conditions that could increase the risk of complications. It's also worth noting that while the treatment can significantly improve the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, it is not a permanent solution. Depending on the individual, the results typically last several months to a year.

Your Initial Consultation

A consultation with Dr. Will Thompson at his Denver, CO office is an essential first step in the Restylane Lyft process. It allows you to discuss your concerns, expectations, and medical history. Dr. Thompson will assess your facial structure and skin condition to determine if fillers suit you. The consultation also discusses the treatment, including the benefits and potential side effects. Whatever your goals are, Dr. Thompson is here to help meet them.

The Day of Your Procedure

Dr. Thompson will first clean and numb the treatment area during the procedure to minimize discomfort. He will inject the Restylane Lyft filler into the targeted areas using a fine needle.

The injection process typically takes 15-30 minutes, and patients can usually return to their normal activities immediately after the treatment.

After the procedure, patients may experience some swelling, redness, or bruising at the injection site. These side effects are usually mild and temporary and can be managed with over-the-counter pain relievers and cold compresses. Patients should avoid touching or rubbing the treated area for at least 24 hours after the procedure and avoid strenuous exercise or exposure to sunlight for a few days.

The results of the Restylane Lyft procedure are usually visible immediately after the treatment and can last up to 18 months. Patients can expect a more youthful and refreshed appearance, with fuller, lifted cheeks and a more defined jawline.

Recovery and Results

After a Restylane Lyft procedure, patients can expect mild swelling, redness, and bruising around the injection sites. These side effects should subside within a few days. Patients can use ice packs to reduce swelling and avoid direct sunlight, saunas, and strenuous exercise for at least 24 hours after the procedure.

Restylane Lyft injections do not require downtime, and patients can return to normal activities immediately after the procedure. However, it is recommended that patients avoid applying makeup to the treated area for at least six hours after the procedure to reduce the risk of infection.
